Beauty like her is not born. It is suffered for, earned and shaped, until the day that it finally becomes. For there is nothing quite as beautiful as the honesty of breaking and the strength of fragility.
Never place yourself above your fellow man, for we are all, each and every one of us, born of equal rights to the nourishing earth beneath and the wonder of the stars above.
Her harmony came not through the complete absence of chaos, but in the realization that she was resilient enough to come back stronger from anything that she would endure...

You are the artist of your existence, my dear. So color the canvas of your destiny and mold the shape of your reality. Never forget that above all else, your life is a masterpiece of your own creating.
Today I choose to forgive myself for past mistakes. Today I choose happiness, contentment and inner-peace. Today I choose to free myself of negativity and to take ownership of my life. Today, and everyday, I choose self-love and to believe in the magic of undying hope.
And it took cutting back the prettiest parts of myself to finally realize that this shell does not define me. For I am so much more than flesh and bone that case the beautiful tragedies of my heart and mind.

Be kind to your body, gentle with your mind and patient with your heart. Stay true to your spirit, cherish your soul and never doubt yourself. You are still becoming, my love, and there is no one more deserving of the nurturing grace of your love.
The purpose of this glorious life is not simply to endure it, but to soar, stumble, and flourish as you learn to fall in love with existence. We were born to live, my dear, not to merely exist.
